That's funny cause that is not what I was expecting. The guy looks like a kindly, thoughtful gentleman who resembles Frank Black a bit. I was expecting some middle aged dude trying his hardest to look like Mac.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Sound is good on the new songs. He is a good rhythm player.

Mac and Will really need to part ways. Mac wants to be Richard Hawley. Will's Glide stuff is just fantastic. But I guess if I were in their shoes there is no way I'd want to chance it after how much better live show revenue is for the name Echo & The Bunnymen.


That is one amazing mic there Mac has.


Peter looks like a nice guy for not being one.

That's a strange name choice for a management company, is it Douchebag International or does he just take care of the UK side of things?

No, none. Even if it were Mac on acoustic and Will still on electric it would be cool just the two of them. I enjoyed watching it. It was kind of cool to see Peter the manager play.
I long for the pork of Porcupine. (A slide show dedicated mostly to Will right here.... http://www.examiner.com/rock-music-in-l ... -here-tour)

Hasn't that idea of a rock band playing acoustic played itself out yet?

I only know what I read... But what a sicko! I don't get why they are so bent on destroying their product--perhaps it's a manner of attempting to control them. I just got Head On/Repossessed and according to Julian almost everything came from people who were allegedly helping them.

You've no sense of romance withahip? You never tried to woo a girl with just your acoustic guitar?

Or was the large dong enough to do the trick?
